Shuttle unveiled a premium small form factor (SFF) system named SDXi Carbon, this unit starts at a whopping $2,599. For that price you get a watercooled SFF system with a nice paint job and Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3GHz processor, 2GB DDR2 800MHz memory, NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT 512MB graphics card, Windows Vista Home Premium, 250GB HDD, DVD burner, Logitech Internet 350 keyboard and integrated 7.1 audio. It's pretty expensive and if you want the good stuff like a Core 2 Extreme QX96500, 8GB DDR2, a better HDD, Blu-ray drive and GeForce GTX 285 you're gonna have to spend a lot more.
SDXi Carbon is equipped with one of the world’s only small form factor water cooling solutions, and features the world’s first Liquid I.C.E. technology. This unique solution is specially designed to deliver the most efficient cooling solution in an extreme small form factor chassis. By designing our own cooling, case, and motherboard, we are able to take full control of the thermal design and create an incredibly efficient and quiet system. Now with Liquid I.C.E., you are free to push your processor to new limits while enjoying a near silent system.
